Whether integrated in to your DAW or running standalone, GURU's powerful sequencer with ultra tight timing and realtime groove adjustment is an intuitive and addictive interface with which to quickly write inspiring rhythmic foundations for your tracks.
High-quality built-in effects, including compressors, EQs, delays, reverbs are available right under your fingertips, as well as sample manipulation capabilities like reverse, bitcrusher, and resonant filters - all the power you need, whether you want to mangle your sounds or just tweak them.
GURU gives you the hands-on feel which you crave... record performances with a MIDI controller, mouse or laptop keyboard, fire off sequences with a single keypress, drop parts in and out, chop loops instantaneously, and switch grooves on the fly - all with sample accurate timing. GURU is a complete beat production worksation environment, ideally suited to live use or for fast, intuitive composition in the studio or on the road.
Instant loop slicing with in-context preview and automatic score detection makes reusing and reprocessing your existing loops a breeze, and even lets you cross-breed and hybridize your loops - take the feel from one loop and apply the sounds from another, then drag and drop the results to your host.
